I’ve got an engineering background so I’m kind of taking a scientific approach to this. I’m starting out trying a square foot garden. I decided to do this in response to the rising gas & oil prices (and the price of everything else). I want to be more self sufficient so why not try it.

In addition I’m collecting rainwater and I want to learn how to do canning too.
